Summary

This manuscript is a short treatise on the virtues, on paper, comprising two gatherings, perhaps once part of a large volume. The text was written closely, rapidly, and roughly; unruled and with a varying number of lines; and with numerous abbreviations, crossings out, and marginal insertions and corrections. Trimming has resulted in some losses to marginal notes.

Notes

• The text was printed twice, in 1505 and 1513, both times appended to Vercellis' Sermones quadragesimales de XII mirabilibus christianae fidei excellentiis. Impressum Venetijs : Per Albertinum de Lisona Vercellensem, 1505 and Hagenaw, Rynman, 1513. No modern edition identified. Abbreviations in the incipit and explicit have been expanded based on the 1505 edition.
